attachments for explosive engines and more particularly to gasolene engines and'its object is to produce an attachment by means of which a cheap grade of fuel can be fed to the engine after the engine has been primed with a good grade of fuel.

With the foregoing and other objects in view the inventionconsists in the combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter fully described in the following specification, pointed out in the claim and illustrated in the accompanying drawings which form a part of said specification and in which- Figure l is a side elevation of my attachmentsecuredto the cylinder head of a gasolene engine. Fig. 2 is a section taken on line 2-2"of Fig. i; Fig. 3 is a top plan of aportion of Fig.2. Fig. 4 is a plan view of the attachment. Fig. 5 is a section taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 4.

Like reference characters indicate corre sponding parts throughout the several views.

The reference numeral 1 indicates the cylinder head of a gasolene engine and the same is provided with the valve 2. To the cylinder head an approximately semi-circular casing 3 is secured which extends above and below the valve and is provided with a gasolene intake pipe 4 and a drain plug 5." A drain pipe 6 extends through the floor 7 of the casing to a point above the valve in the cylinder head and said drain pipe is capable of registration with the mouth of a swing pipe 8 which also rises from the floor of the casing to a point above the valve and Specification of Letters Patent.

tally by a support comprising a strap 9 connected to a stem 10 which extends through the top of the casing 3 and there is provided with a handle 11.. The top of the casing is formed with a curved slot 12 through which the stem 10 extends and this slotted portion of the casing limits'the movement of the stem 10 and consequently of the swing pipe. The swing pipe 8 communicates with a reservoir (not shown) which Operation: To start the engine gasolene is admitted to the casing 3 through the pipe 4 until .the casing is filled above the level of the valve which valve is opened and the engine primed. After the engine is warmed up the supply of gasolene is shut off and the swing pipe, which is constantly running cheap fuel normally into the drain pipe 6, is swung out of connection with the drain pipe and the fuel therefrom permitted to run into the casin '3 and used to drive the engine instead of the high grade oil by which it is started.

What is claimed is Ina carbureter for explosive engines, the combination of a casing provided with an outlet, a valve for controlling said outlet, said casing extending above and below said valve, a gasolene intake pipe for said casing, a swing pipe for cheap fuel entering through the floor of the casing and extending above the valve level, a drain pipe extending above the level of the valve normally in engageas my own I have hereto aflixed my signa I ture in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
